Assigning Elevations to Polylines from Text.

[BIGAL]

Least they have moved the text not the block 40 years Civil experience, if they moved the point or block then that is a serious problem with the accuracy of the data you would know all about it on my team.

 

I will redo the ssget "CP" option as soon as I find some time.

 

Ronjonp nice code not sure which would be faster using a "WP" or comparing the distance between all the text. On the sample dwg probably no difference may creep in when dealing with real big numbers of points.

Just the text, the block (cross) is correct. Personally I use an attributed block, so that the text can be moved with no issues.

agree.

 

But why the drawing cross (block) & text apart? it will be a mess if not paired nicely.

like BIGAL mentioned "comparing the distance between all the text"

if we have 100 cross how to pair with 79 texts if out of 20 texts accidenly get deleted ?

 

our projects also using attributed block. with ID,ELEV,CODE tags

Hi Hanhphuc, Unfortunately I can't control how other people carry out their surveys. Lots of survey software seem to compile this way, I don't particularly like it.

Anyway, I spent a couple of hours last night, isolating the points/blocks and text levels, making sure every level text had a corresponding cross, added crosses where needed (there were manhole covers with no crosses for instance).

I ran RonjonPs excellent code, then went through all the points to check they had been assigned the correct text level. After 2-3 hours I managed to get all 2,500 points done, so all in all not too bad.

Now I have all the points at their correct Z value I could replace them with attributed blocks, but for now this will do nicely. I guess I'm lucky that RonjonP and Bigal etc exist and are willing to assist! Cheers

Is not the manhole cover not a block ? In my code the ssget uses the (0 . "INSERT") If you remove the layer "058" it will find all blocks and look for text.

oh same surveyor problems. shape of column, rectangular takes 2 point orientation, but sometimes 3 corners. rounded sometimes 1 point, sometimes 3 points

another issue BIGAL knows well

 

no worries you got it sorted. luckily ronjonp

Thanks for the tip. Some are and some aren't. Some are 3 pt rectangle polylines, so I added points to those. Thanks P
